4. Compacted Plants
break up and get
covered by a layer
of dirt and sit for a
few centuries, then
creating fossil fuels
:D
5. This coal is a fossil
fuel from
compacted plants
and animals. It is
mined and taken to
factories :D
6. The coal is
burned in the
boiler and creates
steam , the steam
goes through the
pipes :D
7. The steam from
the boiler goes
through the
turbine, the
steam turns the
turbine blades :D
8. The steam from the turbine
goes into the generator
through tubes that the
turbine spins. In the
generator, big magnets spin
close to coils of wire :D
10. After the Coal has
been through the
Wires, it makes its
way to your home
and gives it
Electricity :D
11. Firstly, The sun fertilizes the trees and
plants so that they can grow. Then the
plants die and get compacted. Then in a
million or so years it becomes fossil
fuels. It is turned into coal, mined and
taken to a coal factory. Then the coal is
burned in a boiler which causes the
water in the boiler pipes to become
steam.
The steam goes through the pipes to the
turbine.
The steam spins the turbine blades.
The spinning blades turn a tube
connected to the generator.
In the generator, big magnets spin close
to coils of wire.
When this happens, an electrical flow is
produced in the wires.
